The key to constipation is that you should pay attention to your bowel habits and lifestyle.
1, avoid smoking, alcohol, less spicy and fried food.
2, need to get enough fiber, fiber-rich foods are beans, whole grains and whole grains, fresh fruits, vegetables (carrots, cabbage, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, etc.). Also reduce your intake of low-fiber foods and high-fat foods.
3. Drink enough water or juice or broth every day, but beverages containing caffeine, such as coffee and cola drinks or alcohol, can cause the body to lose water and thus aggravate the symptoms of constipation. Therefore, intake of such beverages should be avoided. Exercise at a moderate intensity for about half an hour every day. It is better to have regular bowel movements every day and not to hold your bowels.
Additionally, it is important not to take laxatives for a long period of time. Long-term abuse of laxatives reduces the stress of the nerve receptor cells of the intestinal wall, and even if there is a sufficient amount of feces in the intestinal area, normal peristalsis and defecation reflexes cannot be produced, resulting in adverse consequences. Supplementary note, frequent constipation is not only limited to functional constipation, it also includes colon constipation and rectal constipation. Therefore, frequent constipation people should go to the hospital as soon as possible to find out the cause of constipation after symptomatic treatment.
